[azz_azz87]

Hi all im new to this site hopefully im posting in right section. I have a 2002 5door hatchback 1.6 focus. And the drivers door, the cables inside for the electric windows have snapped iv been told its called a regulator so tomorrow im going scrappy to get one. Iv took of off the car seemd pretty simple to remove. But it doesn't connect to the window is tgere anything im missing or does the new one have to connect to the window some how. Any help would be grateful. Thanks guys n girls

The regulator attaches to the motor if I recall correctly? and the motor is what drives the window, though I could be wrong.

the window is normally connected to the regulator by 2 clamps.

you can get a repair kit for it from eBay for your car.

or as you have already said,try and source another 1 from the scrappys,

i wouldnt try and fit a new cable to your original regulator as as it has snapped you may find that the plastic spool within has stripped through overrun?.
